Accident Reports Online

Effective August 1, 2008, motor vehicle accident reports generated on July 1, 2008, or after that date will be available on-line and in most cases reports can be obtained within 3 to 5 days of the accident. Some accidents may require additional time. Accident reports will still be available at the Fayetteville Police Department. To search for an accident report, you simply enter the name of the driver, date of accident, location of the accident or the report number.

Payment

Most major credit or debit cards will be accepted online. If picking up a copy at the Fayetteville Police Department, the following are acceptable forms of payment: credit or debit cards, personal check, cash or money order. Government issued ID must be presented with credit or debit cards or personal check and the ID must match the user as well as the information on the form of payment.

Delayed Accident Reports are designed for citizen reporting of an accident after the fact, and they are not typically investigated by an officer unless the suspect vehicle fled the scene AND the license plate and vehicle information was obtained in order for an officer to conduct follow up investigation. Delayed Accident Reports are designed to be completed and returned to the Fayetteville Police Department, and they are not able to be submitted online at this time; however, you may mail them in or drop them off at 100 W. Rock Street, Fayetteville, AR 72701. An accident falls into this category if the accident occurred on a city street.

Private Property Accident Reports are designed for citizen reporting of an accident, and they are not typically investigated by an officer unless the suspect vehicle fled the scene AND the license plate and vehicle information was obtained in order for an officer to conduct follow up investigation. Private Property Accidents are designed to be completed by the citizen and then submitted by the citizen to their insurance company to suffice as their police report. These would ONLY be returned to the Fayetteville Police Department if the follow up investigation criteria were met. An accident falls into this category if the accident occurred in a parking lot or other area of private property.
